Author’s Notes: First things first, I got all of my info re: the bris from
Judaism 101. I may have to keep this particular site handy for future reference when writing for Ziva… Second things second, any and all details surrounding the pregnancy, birth, and life of this young son of Abby and Ziva's will be forthcoming at some point, I just don't know when yet.
Dedication: My muses, for always playing along…

By A. Magiluna Stormwriter
"No."
Why does she not understand that simple word? I have said it more times than I can remember this past hour.
"Why not? The rabbi's already gonna be down there; we might as well just do it all at once."
"There is no way that my eight-day-old son is going to have his penis pierced, Abigail. I emphatically refuse."
"But, Ziva," Abby whines, batting her lashes at me. "He'll already be getting his first taste of wine and one body modification. Why can't he just go for the trifecta and have the piercing, too? Unless you'd rather give him a tattoo. That would be awesome!"
"You know, I am reminded…" Ducky pipes up, one finger rising in that familiar gesture that indicates I'm about to get a lecture on my own religious beliefs.
As Ducky drones on about the differences between the brit milah and the hatafat dam brit, I consider this request as I study my teammates -- my family. Tony appears to be considering Abby's request as valid, while McGee looks suitably horrified by this whole conversation. It's more than obvious that Ducky doesn't seem to care either way, since he can't perform the ritual himself. It's not until I hear Gibbs' soft snort of amusement that I realize what Ahuvati is doing.
"Abigail Scuito, you are an incorrigible brat," I finally say, cutting in when Ducky pauses for breath. "You are banished to the couch until further notice for trying to trick me like that."
